Hi
We routinely now do TBL in classes of 200
A few things
When you get to large settings….the quality of question you ask is critical….in smaller settings we can get away with a lot of things because of instructor presence and the intimacy of the setting
Be super organized with team folders….and detailed lesson plans…..with the team folders we just put them at the front of the class and ask each team to send a representative down
We divide out classes into teams and the teams are in one of four divisions (quadrant of classroom)….that is a reminder for us to facilitate the reporting discussion division to division….so we don't don't get hung up talking
to one corner of the class
Start the reporting using an iphone app like Pick Me…..so every group is on the hot seat for reporting first
Have the person speaking in a team stand up…and make sure everyone in the class can hear
Have a TA quickly mark reporting choices on a classroom map….voting cards go up for such a short time….that I can't remember what all 35 team might have reported
I like the rule….last team to report is first to talk….makes those voting cards go up fast
And relax….It does work…
Jim
